Every day, more photos are taken with the iPhone than any other camera. And now with the all-new iSight camera on iPhone 5s, it's even easier to end up with a great photo.

Your fingerprint is the perfect password. You always have it with you. And no two are exactly alike. So it made sense to create a simple, seamless way to use it as a password.

iPhone 5c is more than just a color phone. It's an entirely new expression of what iPhone can be.

Which iPhone should you buy?

That is going to be a very popular question over the next ten days (Both iPhone models will be available to purchase on September 20th.) This is not something that I am able to answer. It truly depends on you.

What can you afford?

The iPhone 5c starts at $100.00 on a contract. If you do not want to sign a contract, most carriers offer 24 month financing option. The 5s starts at $200.00. That extra hundred bucks gets you a fingerprint sensor, a better camera and a overall faster phone.

What will you be doing with your iPhone?

This question leads back to the first question, cost. You could get the 16GB 5c for $100.00 or up grade to the 32GB for $200.00. If you want storage capacity over the newest features then go with the the 32GB 5c. For the same cost, you could get the 16GB iPhone 5s.Photos, videos, music, apps, movies, TV shows. They all take up space. Some games take up a GB of space, decreasing the amount of space left for your photos and videos. I have a 2 year old so I take lots of videos and photos. I mean a lot. I currently have a 64GB iPhone 5 and about half is filled with photos and videos of him. There are cloud based storage solutions you can go with to keeps local storage available.

What Carrier should you choose?

Again, this one is all up to you. In my area, Verizon is more reliable and has better coverage while AT&T has a faster network. You have to research this and make an educated guess. This mainly applies to new customers. Customers that are under contract and are upgrading tend to stay with their provider. Early Termination Fees are expensive.

There you have it folks. The new iPhones laid out side by side, some videos from Apple showing off both devices and some questions to keep in mind while deciding. Let me know what your choice is and happy iPhone-ing!!!
